Fundraising & Support

Gear up, Salukis! Our official SIU Rugby store with Steamroller Rugby is now live after a competitive bid process. Whether you want a Belichick-style hoodie, a racerback tank, or a Carhartt cooler for pitch-side beverages, the store has you covered. Every purchase also gives back to the SI RFC Alumni organization and supports the growth of SIU Rugby.

The SIU Rugby Alumni is launching a new Monthly Alumni Sponsorship Program designed to help build a stronger alumni community and support our long-term goal of securing a graduate student coach for the club. With tiers at $10, $25, $50, and $100 per month, alumni can choose their level of involvement while making a lasting impact on the future of SIU Rugby. Learn more and see what each tier includes.

SIRFC Alumni rocked the tailgate and wrapped up the With You campaign, raising nearly $30K! Huge thanks to all donors and congrats to raffle winners Chris Eames, Andrew Perlmutter, Darcie Hastings, and Dave Hanetho. On track to fund the Sports Management Scholarship!
